South Africa’s latest xenophobic flare saw 24 cars torched and foreign‑owned shops looted in the cities of Soweto and Durban.  The unrest followed a Constitutional Court ruling that allows certain illegal migrants to apply for asylum, igniting anger among anti‑immigration groups.  Police fired rubber bullets at demonstrators, with 14 vehicles destroyed in Durban and 10 in Soweto, while shopkeepers were pushed out and some premises set ablaze.  The country has a long history of xenophobic violence, and the new policy has again stoked concerns about a surge in undocumented migration.  Authorities promise investigations, but tensions remain high in affected communities.
